For those of you planning to attend the Association for Asian Studies’ (AAS) 
annual meeting in San Diego from March 4th to the 7th, I would like to 
invite those interested individuals to attend an informal gathering of the 
recently established Korean Queer Studies Forum (KQSF).  This forum was 
established late last year in response to the perceived absence of a 
critical intellectual discussion on issues of importance to the queer 
communities of South Korea, in spite of their relevance to the contemporary 
situation both in and outside of the peninsula.

The gathering at this year’s AAS will, I hope, allow individuals working on 
and/or interested in issues related to the development of “Korean queer 
studies” the opportunity to meet and share ideas, as well as to plan future 
activities, such as presentations, conferences, publications, etc.

We will meet at 5:30PM on Friday, March 5th, at the AAS registration booth.  
To find us, please look for the forum’s sign, which will read KQSF.

I hope to meet many of you in San Diego.

Best,

Todd Henry
PhD Candidate in History, UCLA
Forum Co-founder/organizer
